Our take on The Land Of Lamia
The story and mysterious setting receive much of the presentation, but the simultaneous-control mechanic is the central progression system. Its reception may depend heavily on tolerance for a control method the developer acknowledges can feel frustrating.
What is The Land Of Lamia?
The Land Of Lamia is a short, story-driven puzzle adventure.
Lily and Thomas wake in a bedroom transported to a strange world filled with unusual plants, fog, winding paths, and stone creatures. Each level provides a new illustration and a passage from the Book of Lamia. Players study these descriptions to find clues about the setting and solve puzzles.
Lily and Thomas are controlled at the same time through a distinctive system that must be learned to progress. The story follows the characters as they investigate why they have been brought to Lamia and what presence may be observing them. The simultaneous-control mechanic is central to the game, with the developer noting that players may find it either appealing or frustrating.
